Prediction

The Clippers have faced the Jazz three times this season and won all three matchups, each victory by a double-digit margin. The gap in overall strength between the two teams is significant—the Clippers excel on both offense and defense, while the Jazz struggle offensively and have a weak defense. Both teams are playing on back-to-back nights, but the more well-rounded and consistent Clippers should have the upper hand. Expect the Clippers to win by more than 9 points.

Pick: Clippers -9.0 (bet365)
